With that statement Jack Moran, who fought them all In his day, In cluding a guy named Dempsey, sum med up the outcome of the coming brawl In the Windy City for the heavyweight "champeenshlp" of the world. Employed by Elaele & Co. of Nash ville, Tenn.. Moran was In town yes terday peddling his company's drug supplies to local concerns.

Louis has never fought a champion, Mo ran pointed out, and the realization of that and the great prize at stake will not help him any. "No, I don't think Braddock' Ih o-year layoff will hurt him much." the ex-flghter answered a query. "He keeps In good shape and has been working out all the time. He'll be fit when he steps In the ring, and he'll win, remember that." When asked If Louis hit as hard as advertised, Moran grinned, "Sure, he can hit. He hits maybe harder than anybody yet, Including Jack Dempsey. But Braddock won't go rushing In there and mix It with Louis. He's too smart for that. He'll keep that left hand In Louis' mug all the time and maybe click him with a few right hands. You know. Louis proved he's a target for a right hand when he fought Schmellng. And look at that Pastor. Why, he went In there to atay the route and he did, and he's only a fair boxer. Braddock Is a great boxer and can hit to boot."

He weighed 178 pounds at the time, with Dempsey about 16 pounds heavier. Strangely. Moran doesn't consider the Dempsey bout the toughest he ever fought. The brawl with Al Kauffman had It beat a mile, he said. "Kaiiffman and I went 10 rounds, to a draw In Milwaukee In 11)16," Moran related, "and thnt was the hardest scrap 1 ever had, we pounded earh other until we were both black and blue. We were ho evenly match ed that we couldn't do any busi ness except stnnd there and slug, and no chance nf a knockout. We could both take plenty of piinl.hnient, and hoy, we sure did." Moran started fighting In 1811 and quit In 1931. He battled as a light His one championship bout was wtth Battling Levlnsky. They (ought In Bt. Louis In 1917 for the light heavyweight title, and the Fish Ped dler retained the crown after 13 rounds. It was a no-declslon fight, with the newspapers calling the bat tie a draw. Other blg-tlmers Moran fought were Gunboat Smith. Bartley Mad- i den. Jack Dillon, Bob Martin, Al Pal ! Mr. Battling Jim Johnson and Char ley Werner. Moran said that Pred Pulton, regardless of his reputation following the as-second K. O. at the handa of Dempsey. was really a great fighter. Pulton had the best left hand In the game, Moran asserted, and was far from yellow, aa so many persons claim. Jsck Dempsey, said Moran, doesn't really own the famous restaurant fcasrlng his name In New York City, but Just appeared there a couple of hours a day to greet hero-worship pers and lend the right atmosphere. For which, the former fighter claim ed, the ote' Manassa Mauler received the pittance of 1000 berrlea a month. DIZZY AND RIPPLE FINED AS LEADERS IN FREE-FOR-ALL More than willing to talk about the right game. Moran clammed when asked hla opinion of the wreatllng busmen. He Just grinned and changed the subject.

W) Dloiy Dean and Jimmy Ripple were fined 60 each today by Ford Prick, presi dent of the National league, for their fight In the St. Louis Cardinals-New York Olanta game at St. Louis yesterday. Prick, who spent about ISO of the league's money In long distance tolls trying to get all the facta, sent these telegrams to Dean and Ripple: "Por actions on the ball field tend ing to precipitate a riot, you are fined ISO. payable to this office with in five daya." No one else wu fined. Scores Yesterday HIGH JUMP 5 FEET, 5 1 SET BY NEWLAND Tiger Relay Team Ties Rec ord Forest Grove Places Third Phoenix- Entry Garners Three Points (By the Associated Press.) The pitching argument of the era Carl Hubbell's brains vs. Dizzy Dean's good right arm Is still a long way from being settled, but for the moment there seems little to offer against the nomination of "King Carl" as the best hurler In the game today. Despite his all-time high run or 12 straight victories. It was another angle, generally overlooked In the flat flinging and excitement of the 4-1 beating Hubbell and the Giants pinned on Dean and the Cardinals yesterday, which explains as much as anything why old "Squarepante" stands out a like a Babe Ruth in a field of bush leaguers. When Dean and Jim Ripple started the battle that wound up In a riot, with about everyone remotely con nected with both teams taking part. Hubbell wasn't anywhere around. And where was Carl when the lights went out? Why, down In the Olanta' dugout, as cool aa a keg of beer. By his own explanation. Hubbell Is paid to win ball games. And. alnce ftst-throwlng. In his opinion. doesn't come under the head or win ning pitching, he kept both hla seat and his head when the Olanta pour ed out of their dugout to mix It. (By the Associated Press.) Coast. R. H.
